Handpoking (also known as stick and poke or machine-free tattooing) is a traditional method of permanent body art that uses tattoo needles and ink to render designs in the skin dot-by-dot. While this technique is much slower than using a machine, the process is precious. The application is gentle and quiet, allowing for natural conversation and connection to flow. I'm self-taught and community-taught, tattooing since July 2023. I currently work out of a private studio in Howard County.
